I'm graduating!!

[eyeinfinitude]

Some of you already know this, but today is my graduation. I'm a bit nervous because I'm the validictorian and giving speeches in front of a crowd isn't something I enjoy. :-\

If you guys don't hear from me by later tonight, then it will be obvious that I fainted during my speech and will be in a hospital. :!:

:trout: :trout:

[Creatures]

Creatures

[lostinbeta]

I am sure you will do fine in your speech, just don't worry too much and you won't stress yourself out so much that you faint :P

[gimmesomemore!!]

Thats not very safe. You could barf and faint at the same time, then choke on your barf. Isn't that sort of how the first lead singer of AC/DC died?

Gross.

[eyeinfinitude]

hahah yeah and it would make a mess on my cap and gown. :P

[gimmesomemore!!]

Hey EG, have you ever heard of "Brooks" I think they are in Long Beach? Would you recommend them? (assuming you have heard of them)

[senocular]

the validictorian?!?! :!:

=)!

good luck! Id give some advice but I have none heh. I think the best thing to know is that YOU were the one who got the pleasure to be up there, so theres nothing to worry about. ;)

I've heard of Brooks, they're not too great from what I've heard. I would recommend that you go to The Art Institute. I will be going there this April after I graduate from Westwood.

Sen
Thanks, that actually boosts my confidence. =)

Thanks everyone, I'll post pictures later. =)

yea, I would love to go to the art institure. But its ALOT of $mula$ that I do not have. But......I think that would be a wise decision anyway. Hey maybe It will get me a dope a** job so I can pay back all the loans...........lol.

but then again...i have no idea how much brooks is.

[nobody]

congratulations EG!

[reverendflash]

Gimme:

I almost went to Brooks 20 some odd years ago... They used to have a good rep. Don't know about now tho...

the Art Institute is prob just a little more than Brooks... I'd go with AI today...

Good Luck.. not only at your graduation but whereever the wind might take you after that...

You always got friends here and a friend in me.. Something I always do when I'm speaking in front of a large crowd is sit and think about all the good things you went through with your classmates.. Course there are a few jerks.. But hey...

You gotta tell yourself.. I'm up here and you aren't so KISS MY ***! :) You've got a good back behind you and that should be enough to clear your way to the top..

Take it eays and take care.

[eyeinfinitude]

Thanks Marlin, I've never been this nervous before and this will also be my first time speaking in from of a crowd this large so yeah I got butterflies, moths, birds and bats flying around in my stomach right now.

You guys are really helping out a lot though, thanks for the wise words. =)

[reverendflash]

don't forget to breath...

[Aislin]

*cries to death laughing* Man dippy, that was hilarious.

"I got accepted into the highschool I want to go to."

So did I. I'm in my second year there, the tuition is nuts, like, thirty friggin bucks a year. It's insane.

*laughs to death*

Grade 10 is hell in some ways, but a cakewalk in others.

Edit: You know what, I'll just pretend shane didn't say that and laugh some more, cause it was funny as heck till he made me look dumb. :P Thanks for the head's up, though, Shane.

[NaliWarCow]

Well, its 11:45 pm here in central time zone, and no EG. Sorry you passed out :). I just hope you didn't throw up on the principal. But congrats on being valedictorian, I know that's not an easy thing to do. I was almost valedictorian, but then like 200 people from my 201 person class all beat me, so I didn't actually get it.

CONGRATS
NWC :trout:

[upuaut]

Congrats sir.

validictorian speach huh? I say get up there, look like you're going to say something and then let out a huge fart.

of course I've got an odd sense of humor. I'm sure you'll know what to say when you get there. You're suposed to be the smartest guy in school after all. :)

Good luck, Hurry back, break a leg.

[RelandR]

Yeah it's probably allready over now...

a lil too late for *think ahead suggestions* like 'strap a mattress to yer back and puke in yer cap'.... just don't put it on after...

Soooo.... congrats on the gradiation.... after the fact

[Kitiara]

Hope you enjoy yourself EG. I graduated about three years ago now, but I remember that day well. All very serious up until we hit the bar afterwards. Good fun, go and knock yourself out. :)

[noxious]

[hojo]

[Alex]
